Everything You Need To Know About The Massive Worldwide Cyberattack “WannaCry”

QUOTE OF THE DAY“I haven’t accomplished anything I can be proud of in my 60 years on Earth. This is my chance” — SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, as he prepares to launch the Japanese firm’s $100 billion tech fund, one of the world’s largest, as early as this week.

Like a Sci-Fi Movie, But Real

A massive cyberattack called “WannaCry” has infected over 200,000 computers in 150 countries since Friday—and it’s only going to get worse as people go back to work and boot up their Windows computers (with outdated software, that is).

All of this, clearly a good step, but just as clearly, there is a longgg way to go.

Pour One Out

Heineken (+0.57%) said Friday it will introduce a new non-alcoholic beverage to its lineup: “Heineken 0.0.” The Dutch brewhouse is looking to drink-up some zero-alcohol beer market share, an industry that’s grown about 5% per year since 2010.

Don’t worry about your favorite brewski being swapped out for an O’Doul’s just yet. Heineken is only rolling out the new non-alcoholic brew in 17 countries in Europe and Asia.

If it can nail down a better taste (and we seriously hope it can), then it’s also poised to reap the benefits of the cheaper taxes on zero-ABV drinks. (Same top line, better bottom line.) So wipe the sweat off your forehead, kick back and enjoy a cold one.

Alphabet Hails Uber to Court

Against its will, Uber will face a jury in its ongoing fight with Alphabet’s (-0.08%) self-driving division, Waymo. The case all comes down to one man: Uber’s self-driving chief Anthony Levandowski, formerly a Google executive. This goes way back to January 2016, when Alphabet says he took 14,000 secret documents from Google to found autonomous-truck startup Otto.

Here’s where it gets tricky: Uber then acquired Otto in August for $680 million. Alphabet says Uber should have realized Levandowski’s theft during its due diligence of the acquisition.

Alexa, Order Me a Couch

Did you know that online furniture sales grew 18% in 2015? Well, Amazon (+1.45%) does. And with that growth continuing every day, the e-tailer is digging in with four new warehouses specifically for furniture.

The new-found space will help Amazon go after furniture industry giants like IKEA, Williams Sonoma (-2.62%) and Wayfair (-5.98%).

Interview Question of the Day

While there is an actual estimate of this number, JPMorgan likes to ask candidates the question to see their market-sizing chops at work. (Here’s what they want to hear.)

Video of the Day

Last week, we told you about the ridiculous mountain of cash Apple (+1.40%) is sitting on. But can you visualize how big $250 billion actually is? We definitely couldn’t until we watched this nifty clip from Wired that puts Apple’s riches in scale.

Stat of the Day

$230 million — That’s how much cold hard cash Comcast-owned NBC Universal is paying for Craftsy, a startup that offers instructional art videos and mail-order craft supplies. The company has raised $103 million in venture capital so far.
